Crown Campus

We understand that some public services are more critical or more sensitive than others. For these systems, you will be looking for the benefits of cloud solutions combined with the safety and neutrality of government grade services. You’ll find all this on the Crown Campus.

Crown Campus extends on the concept of Crown Hosting, the Government’s own data centre formed as a joint venture between Cabinet Office and Ark Data Centres. Crown Hosting is the safe and supplier neutral space for legacy, non-cloud systems that need to be relocated from on-premises facilities or from long-term outsource contracts that are nearing an end.

Crown Campus is a community of specialist public sector service providers who build and operate cloud services on the same campus as Crown Hosting. This provides you with safe and trusted cloud services – giving you the commercial and technical flexibility of cloud without risking your critical or sensitive systems to the global cloud platforms. And because your systems always remain within the Crown Campus, you have the choice and flexibility of on-campus service providers so that you can avoid lock-in.
